Exercise 14

Read the following passage and choose the most appropriate answer from A,B,C or D to answer questions.

Stress is with us all the time. It comes from mental or emotional activity as well as physical activity. It is unique and personal to each of us. So personal, in fact, that what may be relaxing to one person may be stressful to another. For example, if you're a busy executive who likes to keep occupied all of the time, "taking it easy" at the beach on a beautiful day may feel extremely frustrating, nonproductive, and upsetting. You may be emotionally distressed from "doing nothing." Too much emotional stress can cause physical illnesses such as high blood pressure, ulcers, or even heart disease. Physical stress from work or exercise is not likely to cause such ailments. The truth is that physical exercise can help you to relax and to better handle your mental or emotional stress.

Read the passage below and choose the best option A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions

Passage 1:

New Orleans, in Louisiana, is known as the most unique city in the United States with distinctive architecture, cross-cultural heritage and annual music festivals.

However, due to its location along the Mississippi River with lakes on the other side, and nearly half of the city below sea level, the city faces the danger of flooding. So, a levee system and drainage canals were built to protect the city.

Early in the morning of August 29, 2005, Hurricane Katrina, the most destructive natural disaster in the history of New Orleans, struck the city. The storm brought strong winds and heavy rains for several days. As a result, water from the river and lakes rose, breaking the levees and poured directly into the city. Soon 80 percent of the city was under the water. People scrambled to rooftops for safety, desperate for food and drinking water. The winds were so strong that even beds in Hyatt Hotel were seen flying out of the hotel windows. The loss was tremendous. Most of the major roads and bridges were destroyed, and houses collapsed. Nearly 2,000 people were killed. After the storm, several natural grounds for the breeding and migrating of different species of animals and birds were permanently lost.

Question 1: New Orleans is famous for ___________.

A. its modern architecture C. its Mississippi River

B. its cross-cultural heritage D. its location

Question 2: Which statement is NOT correct about New Orleans?

A. It lies between the Mississippi River and lakes.

B. One of its attractions is its annual music festivals

C. The city is surrounded by water.

D. Most of the city is below sea level.

Question 3: Which one is NOT mentioned as being damaged by Hurricane Katrina?

A. Distinctive architecture B. The levee system C. Major roads D. Houses

Question 4: The word ‘tremendous' means ___________.

A.puzzling B. huge C. unique D. legendary

Question 5: The word ‘permanently' is similar to ___________.

A. temporarily B. partially C. forever D. rarely

Passage 2:

How can scientists predict earthquakes? Earthquakes are not scattered anywhere but happen in certain areas. They happen in places where pieces of the earth’s surface meet. For example, earthquakes often occur on the west-coast of North and South America, around the Mediterranean Sea, and along the Pacific coast of Asia.

Another way to predict earthquakes is to look for changes in the earth’s surface, like a sudden drop of water level in the ground. Some people say animals can predict earthquakes. Before earthquakes people have seen chickens sitting in trees, fish jumping out of the water, snake leaving their holes and other animals acting strangely.

After an earthquake happens, people can die from lack of food, water and medical supplies. The amount of destruction caused by an earthquake depend on types of building, soil conditions and population. Of the 6000 earthquakes on the earth each year, only about fifteen cause great damage and many deaths.

Question 1: Earthquakes happen in certain areas where _______________.

A. the population is large B. pieces of the earth’s surface meet

C. the soil conditions are stable D. many buildings are built

Question 2: Earthquakes often happen along ________________.

A. the east-coast of North America B. the east-coast of South America

C. the Pacific coast of Asia D. the coast of Australia

Question 3: Looking for ____________ can help predict earthquakes.

A. changes in the earth’s surface B. water beneath the earth’s surface

C. drops of water D. water currents

Question 4: After an earthquake, as a result of _________ people may die.

A. lack of food B. lack of friendship

C. lack of information D. lack of knowledge

Question 5: The passage mainly discusses ______________.

A. the damage caused by earthquakes B. how strong earthquakes are

Kiến thức: Đại từ quan hệ

Giải thích:

Đại từ quan hệ “which” làm chủ từ trong mệnh đề quan hệ, thay thế cho danh từ chỉ sự vật, sự việc (behaviors and stereotypes).

On the other hand, candidates for the mechanisms that might contribute to reduction of distress in non-human animals (and in humans as well) can be found in displacement behaviors and stereotypes, (29) which are proposed to serve communicative functions as well.

Tạm dịch: Mặt khác, các ứng cử viên cho các cơ chế có thể góp phần làm giảm sự đau khổ ở động vật không phải người (cũng như ở người) có thể được tìm thấy trong các hành vi và khuôn mẫu dịch chuyển, những cái được đề xuất cũng phục vụ các chức năng giao tiếp.

Chọn A

Dịch bài đọc:

Để hiểu rõ hơn về tác động của tiếng khóc ở người, điều quan trọng là phải xem xét sự tương ứng của động vật với tiếng khóc của con người (trong lĩnh vực giao tiếp), cũng như các hành vi khác của động vật có thể phục vụ các chức năng giảm căng thẳng. Trong tất cả các động vật có vú và hầu hết các loài chim, con cái phản ứng với các tiếng gọi phân tách hoặc các tiếng kêu đau khổ khi bị tách khỏi cha mẹ. Có thể có một chút nghi ngờ rằng đây là cơ sở phát sinh gen của tiếng khóc âm thanh của trẻ sơ sinh. Hình thức khóc rất cơ bản này có nghĩa là hoàn tác sự tách biệt khỏi cha mẹ và nó không có khả năng làm dịu trực tiếp. Thay vào đó, hành vi này dường như được liên kết với trạng thái kích thích tăng lên và dẫn đến làm dịu vì sự thoải mái và hỗ trợ mà nó gợi ra, đó là, vì nó đã hoàn thành chức năng liên cá nhân. Ở động vật, các tiếng kêu đau khổ chủ yếu được thể hiện bởi con non, và chúng không bao giờ đi kèm với việc tạo ra nước mắt. Mặt khác, các ứng cử viên cho các cơ chế có thể góp phần làm giảm sự đau khổ ở động vật không phải người (cũng như ở người) có thể được tìm thấy trong các hành vi và khuôn mẫu dịch chuyển, những người được đề xuất cũng phục vụ các chức năng giao tiếp.
